Question
In the question below, a situation is given, followed
by statements that may or may not be possible reasons for the situation. Select the option that best describes the reason for the situation in the question. Situation: Over the past decade, the number of bats residing in urban parks has increased considerably. Wildlife researchers note that species traditionally found in forested areas are now frequently observed roosting in city parks and feeding near streetlights at night. Possible Reasons: I. Urban areas often have large numbers of insects attracted to artificial lights, giving bats a steady and abundant food supply. II. Many urban parks have tall trees and old structures that provide suitable roosting spaces for bats. III. The use of pesticides in rural farmlands has drastically decreased, reducing the need for bats to migrate to urban areas for food.Solution
Statement I is a strong possible reason. Urban areas attract insects with artificial lighting, creating an abundant food source for bats, which can lead to increased bat populations in cities. Statement II is also a strong possible reason. Urban parks providing suitable roosting sites make them attractive habitats for bats. Statement III is not a valid reason. It states that pesticide use in rural areas has decreased, which would actually encourage bats to stay in rural environments, not move to cities. Thus, it cannot explain their increasing presence in urban parks. Therefore, the best answer is A) Only I and II.
